Ashlee Simpson named her daughter...
...Jagger Snow.
She joins her big brother, Bronx Mowgli, who is 6.
I hate it. I hate the name Jagger on a boy, but it's especially bad on a girl. Snow is stupid too, but at least it's just a middle name. Jagger, though? UGH.
Anyway, thoughts?

Snow would have been a cuter first name option.
Jagger. God, I would hate that to be my name.

I was expecting something "unusual" and they clearly didn't disappoint in that regard! Personally I think it's terrible! Jagger for a boy I can just deal with, but on a girl it is HIDEOUS! Snow, well that's a bit crazy too, but it's only a mn so whatever. Then again, she does have a NIECE named Maxwell, lets not forget! Really shouldn't be a surprise.
I really like Snow as a middle name, but Jagger? On a girl? No.
*barfs*
LOL
made me laugh :)

It doesn't surprise me, since, after all, her brother is Bronx Mowgli.
While I dislike Jagger Snow, I think Bronx Mowgli shows us that it could have been sooo much worse.
Jagger is a girl? I didn't realize that when you made your August post... YEESH. Bronx and Jagger would have been ick as a brotherset. I think Snow is inoffensive as far as things celebrities name their children go, but as it's a middle name, I guess it doesn't matter as much.
I didn't even know she was pregnant. Hhm. I like Snow, I think it can be cute in the right place.
At least when she named Bronx, she was being different. No one else had a Bronx or a Mowgli. But tons of celebrities have little Jaggers, both male and female. So no creativity points are being awarded.

I have no idea who Ashlee Simpson is, but those names are just BAD. I'll admit that Snow is a slight GP of mine, but I'll also be the first to admit it's pretty silly as a name, and that's magnified a thousandfold next to Jagger. I absolutely hate, hate, hate the name Jagger, but on a girl it's nauseating. Just terrible.

I wasn't expecting much ...
not with a big brother named Bronx Mowgli. Then there's the sheer ridiculousness of Jagger Snow. So will she move like Jagger at the ski resort? Ah, Snow. It's the perfect name for a child born in late summer. ;-). Actually, the mn doesn't bug me nearly as much as Jagger.

I'm glad I don't have her naming me! Those names are horrible!
Bad. So bad.
Jagger!? And on a GIRL!?
And Snow doesn't sound like a real name; I just think of John Snow from GoT (I like the character, but his name means that he is an illegitimate son, doesn't it?)

Yes. He's from the North, where all bastards are given the surname Snow.
Jagger is terrible.
I don't think Snow is bad, especially as a middle name.
I hope she goes by Snow.

I was hoping..
that they would honour his deceased father in some way. Or maybe his mother. Jagger's name is a huge disappointment :(

Apparently she didn't suffer any remorse over giving her son a name that sounds to the world like a clown stage name, and figured she'd repeat.
I guess entertainers really do feel that set apart and unable to just be people.

Honestly, I don't think Bronx Mowgli is that bad, but Jagger is horrendous. I'd rather be called Snow.
This is why I'm glad she didn't just go with Snow...

Younger people might not make the connection, but yeah.

Oh, my god, I had completely forgotten about that song! I used to have it on an old Now compilation. And it'll be stuck in my head for the rest of the day now! :-)
Yeah, "a licky boom boom down" awoke from dormancy in my mind when I read the name. And Jagger? It's just embarrassing. I'll give her credit for consistency though, bc Bronx Mowgli is so ridiculous that I wasn't sure she'd be able to come up with a moniker for this child that encapsulated the same scope of absurdity and cringeworthy-ness. She's outdone herself! The whole wannabe rocker vibe with Rolling Stones reference (Mick's the *only* Jagger, let's be real). Plus, as mentioned, the whole "informer" thing, and let's not forget the veiled cocaine reference, as well as a faint Disney princess flavour, what with Snow White and all. Bonus points for also bringing to mind rural folk in a snowstorm "Big jagg 'er snow we got there now eh, Larry?". A delicate balance indeed.
Haha, yeah, I honestly have never heard that before :P
Jagger is awful. It's so ugly, I can't even comprehend why anyone would want to use it.
Snow makes for a kind of cool middle name, though.

Well, with an older brother named Bronx Mowgli, I didn't expect much. Jagger Snow is horrible.
Oh no :( Bronx Mowgli is horrific enough but Jagger? Yuck. On a girl? When there are so many lovely girl names to choose from?
Gross. She has terrible taste.
That is awful! Snow is all right, and would be cute (and also sound better next to Bronx. Bronx and Snow or Bronx and Jagger?).
Maybe it's because I've watched several Snow White adaptions where Snow is treated as a perfectly normal given name, but I much prefer it to Jagger on a girl.
Jagger is just so very specifically masculine.

I hope the daughter doesn't have the moves like Jagger.
I think Snow can be cute. But Jagger Snow is terrible.

So bad.
Ugly ugly ugly. Jagger is ugly even when it's only a last name, and it can only belong to one and so all I see when I hear it is those huge lips and that seventy-year-old who still thinks he's a sexpot.
Yeah, that man some 40 years past his prime who still thinks he's God's gift to women. I can't get no satisfaction from Ashlee Simpson naming her daughter after that man.
Reality check
As long as he has fame and millions, no matter what he looks like, he is God's gift to women, so you can't blame him for thinking so.

I guess I hold the unpopular opinion that if Mick Jagger is able to perform and is happy to do it, he should keep doing it regardless of his age. There are so many people who say he should just hang it up, but I'm not sure why. I'm sure he's not messing around sexually as much as he did when he was younger, but he's still going to have that trademark Mick Jagger presence while onstage. More power to him, IMO.
I agree
Most people, if asked, will say that ageism is wrong. And most people, when it comes to their older or elderly relatives, think it's just great if they keep up what they were doing in their youth. How often have we seen or heard, "My mom is 65 and she wants to go sky diving!" So why should Jagger be any different.
Anyway, in my opinion, some men actually get better looking as they age, and I think Jagger is one of them.

My father is definitely more handsome now than he ever was. So is my husband, though he's only in his 30s.
I wonder if Mick Jagger realizes his surname has become a kinda-sorta popular baby name? I know a girl who named her son Jagger, so even non-celebs are doing it.
